    2005/2006 big block

    Not to technical... hmmm. Could be said of the person who posted the question. Either that, or the person knows allot more then most here. There is only one reason to do this motor swap: Racing. The car would never be street legal, so that gives you one option if you really want to do the...

    Healthy 2005 & Up Ponies Need Fiber....... CARBON FIBER THAT IS!!!!

    Well.. considering my fox makes only 75 ponies more then my S197, yet can soundly whomp it... I'd say I'm seriously interested in carbon fiber. Hood, front quarters, door skin and trunklid, all stock looking. It would have to be easy to paint as well. I have a bunch of fiberglass on the Fox...

    I hate to ask this... but could people post some costs? I'm trying to pic a combo, and cost is always a concern. BTW, here is a excel I put together going over different costs for sizes that were listed here. FR/RR is for which rim it would fit, the rating is just a personal number... and the...

    Wingless S197 - Discuss.

    I've noticed a few fellow wingless S197 owners here. Want to hear everyones thoughts on why they got one and how. Thought I'd share mine too. Basically.. the wife and I needed a second (actually, third) Mustang. I planned for eight months to order one with my bonus, but we decided to hold...

    Has anyone ever tried plumbing their AC into their intake?

    Doesn't really work... any power you add is lost from running the A/C compressor. However, if you want some ideas, look into old MotorTrends or Car and Drivers from about 03-04. The 04 F-150 Lightning concept had a special cooler setup where you could store cold air and use it for a quick...

    What I learned today: Stock '06 GT's are slow, Cobolts are faster stock (Funny Post)

    Interesting read from the domestic rice boys. I think the J-bod guys are missing the point of the Mustang. Sure, allot of people get them for the speed, but the new stang offers allot more in terms of comfort and quality (over previous versions). My new GT is slow to me... just the way I want...

    Mustangtuning.com = Poor customer service

    Just an FYI. I ordered the set of one piece headlights after reading an article in 5.0 Mustang. I put the order in on 8/3. A week later, I sold the current headlights, expecting the new ones to arrive. On 8/16, I started wondering where these headlights were, as the car couldn't be taken...

    Where to find guage clusters?

    I'm looking for a guage setup for the instrument panel. I've seen a set up where the stock instrument cluster is completely removed and a custom set up with aftermarket guages goes in it's place... runs around $700 I think. Anyone have a link to the company that makes these set ups?

    Which wire is the hot on an A/C Condensor?

    Just need to figure it out so I can wire up the electric fan. The upper intake is off, so normally I'd just start it up and test it. Let me know.. it's a 90 LX 5.0. Thanks.
